The fall season isn’t complete without seeing costumed adults racing though a watercourse in giant pumpkins. This cherished local event returns to the Tualatin Commons every October with a series of races.

On dry land, a costume contest, face painting, pumpkin bowling, and pumpkin golf will keep the laughs coming at this free, family-friendly event. Located just 13 miles (21 km) southwest of downtown Portland, Tualatin is a great starting point for an autumn adventure.
